Videos

These ten videos tell the story of the asylum and refugee process in the UK, WERS clients Masamba Dadou Mayele, Evelyne Mbatkop Nana and Musa Hassan Ali, with Janet and Khirad explaining how the “befriender” scheme works. Click on the ‘i’ in the top right of each video for more background.

These videos were commissioned by the Newcastle Institute for Social Renewal at Newcastle University as part of the ‘Home’ engagement programme. The Institute connects Newcastle University’s research to the Newcastle community and beyond.

They were produced by a collaboration between Simon Philpott, Senior Lecturer in International Politics at Newcastle University, David Campbell, and Lindsay Cross, Project Director at the West End Refugee Service.
